Air India has completed a comprehensive review of its Boeing fleet's fuel systems and found no irregularities, following a recent crash that raised concerns over potential technical faults. The airline's swift action underscores its commitment to passenger safety and operational reliability.
Thorough Inspections Yield Reassuring Results
After grounding several aircraft for detailed examinations, Air India's engineering teams confirmed all fuel switching mechanisms are functioning as intended. This comes after preliminary reports suggested fuel system issues might have contributed to last month's accident involving a Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
Passenger Safety Remains Top Priority
The airline's spokesperson emphasised: "We've left no stone unturned in our investigations. Our findings confirm the integrity of our entire fleet's fuel management systems." Aviation experts have praised the carrier's proactive approach to maintenance and transparency.
Industry-Wide Implications
This development comes as global aviation authorities increase scrutiny on Boeing aircraft following multiple safety incidents. Air India's clean bill of health for its fleet may help restore confidence among travellers and investors alike.
The Civil Aviation Ministry has confirmed it will review Air India's findings as part of its ongoing investigation into the crash that claimed 12 lives. Meanwhile, the airline continues normal operations with enhanced monitoring protocols in place.
